Salinger Letter on Holden’s Dream Job 14671. J.D. Salinger typed letter signed 1 page, February 28, 1979, with his full name, “J.D. Salinger.” A personal and heartfelt letter reminiscent of Holden’s dream to get “a job at a filling station somewhere, putting gas and oil in people’s cars.” As Salinger idealizes the blue collar in Catcher, writing that “They’d let me put gas and oil in their stupid cars, and they’d pay me a salary and all for it, and I’d build me a little cabin somewhere with the dough I made and live there for the rest of my life” he idealizes the qualities of a certain mechanic, “Mr. H. Al Allen of South Promfret, Vermont” whom he praises as “a most highly skilled specialist and troubleshooter in his field, and an extremely kind and tactful man who is liked and respected by all who know him.” Like Holden only dreams of doing, Mr. Allen, in Salinger’s words, has provided “incomparably helpful, expert, and uncommonly painstaking advice and practical service regarding the purchase, operation, and maintenance of [his] vehicles.” It seems that Salinger, who was otherwise very reclusive, had become quite close to Mr. Allen, continuing that “It is very sad news indeed to learn that he is leaving this part of the country.” In this vein, he seems to romanticize the prospect of Mr. Allen’s move from a place where he is “liked and respected” to a new place among “his future employers and associates, whoever they may be.” It was this very open-ended anonymity that Salinger so desired himself, the enviable ability to become unknown, as he expressed through Holden, “What I'd do, I figured, I'd go down to the Holland Tunnel and bum a ride…I'd be somewhere out West where it was very pretty and sunny and where nobody'd know me and I'd get a job. I figured I could get a job at a filling station somewhere…I didn't care what kind of job it was, though. Just so people didn't know me and I didn't know anybody.” Fine condition, with a clear bold signature. Salinger rarely ever signed letters with his full name, making this a rare find. $7,500 4 Archive on Salinger’s Creative Control over his Published Work 15091. Two revealing letters and a book publishing contract signed by J.D. Salinger, all relating to the impending publication of Franny and Zooey and receipt of final proofs, but also writing about his book Nine Stories, his story “Teddy,” his attitude toward literary critics, and the publication world at large. Salinger writes both letters to his publisher at Little, Brown. In this archive, Salinger fights to maintain creative control of his fiction through the publication process, particularly in “this affair of the Running Heads.” Since his first novel, The Catcher in the Rye, taught him the ugly side of publication, he fought against the unwanted conformity pushed on his fiction. Here, he decries changes in presentation for “aesthetic reasons,” requesting simple observance of authenticity, “It just is what it is: the title of the story,” and drawing support from “the last story in my collection Nine Stories,…Teddy.” He even compares literary critic Alfred Kazin to “the English Department mugwump and faker that my Franny Glass was at war with.” He predicts that “The Kazin piece” in the Atlantic Monthly “is bound to be slow poison” and an upcoming piece from Time Magazine, “will be poison, too, of a different kind.” Salinger believed that his works should exist free of context, and therefore refused to promote them beforehand. By this time, his books were translated into languages worldwide, and Salinger had to battle to keep their spirit intact. To that end, he included several special clauses in his foreign publishing contracts, including his 1964 contract for the Catalan publication of Franny and Zooey. He requires that “no written material except the Author’s can be included in the book or used on the cover or jacket” and that “the book must be submitted for the author’s approval.” In these letters, he delves into the possibility that “My attitude to Interviews,” “not cooperating” with reviewers, and “turning down the offer from..Book Club[s]” resulted in “some really withering reviews,” but rightly predicts that “the book will probably not be hurt.” In fact, readers purchased almost a million copies the first year, making Franny and Zooey an immediate bestseller and an American literary classic. $48,000 5 Rare J.D. Salinger Handwritten Letter Signed On Love, Loss, and the Rarity of Being Sure of Another Person 15225. Salinger, J.D. Famous American Author. Very rare Autograph letter signed, entirely in the hand of the reclusive author. 2 pages on letterhead of the "Writer's Manor Hotel" in Denver, CO. Dated "Nov. 18, 1972." To Olga Pastuchiv Clow, a long-time friend, regarding the death of her husband. In black marker, signed "Jerry." American Author J.D. Salinger, famous for his coming of age novel, The Catcher in the Rye, as well as his compilation Franny and Zooey, writes a heart-rending letter to a recently widowed friend, Olga, about her husband Howard's "deep love" for her. Olga was a former paramour of the reclusive writer, however, they remained friends long after severing romantic ties, and in fact it seems that after Olga married, Salinger became good friends with her husband as well. He writes in this letter, "I learned so much from Howard, and valued his friendship more than I can say. I never knew a kinder or better or wiser man." Though from another person's pen these words might appear the expected tidings transmitted upon a bereavement, Salinger did not easily disperse praise unless it was heartfelt, and for the reclusive author, that was a rare occasion. This letter shows a rare side of Salinger, who had been known to comment both in his writing and personally regarding his belief in the inevitable corruption of love relationships and marriage, beliefs forged from his two failed marriages and unhappy upbringing. He comments here on an apparently shining contrast to his assumptions on how the rest of the world functioned in love and marriage, "I never once heard Howard speak of you without deep love and humor and respect in his voice, and I guess you must know and feel sure that he loved the life you lived together and wouldn't have exchanged it for any other. How many wives, widows, can feel even half so sure their husbands loved their lot in life?" Salinger's published writing, most notably Catcher, echo with themes of authenticity in battle with falsity; specifically false social behavior, false relationships, and unworthy ambitions he associated with adult life. In contrast, the young people who were so often the central figures of Salinger's work injected sparkling authenticity, shadowed with tragedy as they would inevitably not stay young or retain their truth in the corrupt adult world. Families were a particularly poignant arena for his characters to battle out their insidious internal dramas.

    Should you read this book? If you think it is interesting that on September 11, 2001, Flight 77 reportedly hit the 77 foot tall Pentagon, in Washington D.C. on the 77th Meridian West, after taking off at 8:20 AM and crashing at 9:37 AM, 77 minutes later, then this book is for you. Furthermore, if you can comprehend that there is a code of numbers behind the letters of the English language, as simple as A, B, C is 1, 2, 3, and using this code reveals that phrases and names such as ‘September Eleventh’, ‘World Trade Center’ and ‘Order From Chaos’ equate to 77, this book is definitely for you. And please know, these are all facts, just the same as it is a fact that Pentagon construction began September 11, 1941, just prior to Pearl Harbor.

Naki’s contribution was an outlaw act, a criminal offense under the laws of apartheid due to the difference of races; the law forbade him to cut white meat or touch white blood. Naki was perhaps the second most important man in the team that day. There were few photographs where he and Barnard appeared together, but because of the nature of society was Barnard who won the world’s attention.

  • Jay's Collectibles
    Journal of Information Systems Education, Vol. 22(2) Teaching Case Jay’s Collectibles James J. Cappel Business Information Systems Department College of Business Administration Central Michigan University Mt. Pleasant, Michigan 48859, U.S.A. [email protected] Jason R. Gillman, Jr. Liquid Web, Inc. 4210 S. Creyts Road Lansing, MI 48917, U.S.A. [email protected] ABSTRACT There is growing interest in collectibles of many types, as indicated by the popularity of television programs such as the History Channel’s Pawn Stars and American Pickers and the Public Broadcasting Service’s Antiques Road Show. The availability of online auction sites such as eBay has enabled many people to collect items of interest as a hobby and to sell parts of their collection as a business or for extra income. As a collection grows, it becomes increasingly difficult to track through manual methods, and it is often useful to develop a computer-based system for this purpose. This case raises the possibility of developing an information system to manage a collection of sports autographs. This case may be used in a systems analysis and design, database, or systems development course to address a number of important topics such as: systems scope identification, problem and opportunity analysis, requirements analysis, data modeling, and application development. The case is designed to provoke interest and raise a sufficient level of complexity to challenge students to apply a range of systems development and database concepts. While the case addresses sports collectibles, its concepts may be applicable other types of systems, especially those involving other types of collections or “one of a kind” items.
